Samsung India, that registered 27 per cent growth in mobile business revenue for the financial year 2016-17 - accounting for a whopping Rs 34,300 crore of its reported Rs 50,000 crore sales - won't be able to hide the smile when the new facility kicks off production from July 9.

In 2012, Samsung became the leader in mobile phones in the country and the Noida facility rolled out the first-ever "Galaxy S3" device. "We expect the visit to open new avenues for the expansion of our partnership, particularly in the economic domain", Kumar had said.
